Which kind of GTM Engineer are you hiring?

Outbound automation or internal systems, the two ends of this role. Jump to the detail below.

01

Outbound & Data Automation

Enrichment, list building and sequencing automation.
02

Internal Tooling & Systems Integration

CRM integration and internal tools the team relies on.

Outbound & Data Automation

Focused on the top of funnel: building the enrichment, list-building and sequencing automation that feeds SDR and AE pipeline at a scale manual work can't match.

  • Comfortable scripting against APIs for enrichment, scraping and data providers
  • Track record building automation that measurably increased qualified pipeline, not just activity
  • Works closely with SDR leadership to keep automation aligned with what's actually converting
  • Able to move fast without waiting on a formal engineering sprint cycle

Internal Tooling & Systems Integration

Focused on the plumbing: integrating the CRM with the rest of the GTM stack and building the internal tools a revenue team relies on day to day.

  • Comfortable owning CRM architecture and integrations, not just configuration
  • Track record building internal tools or dashboards the team actually adopted
  • Experience maintaining systems reliably, not just shipping a first version
  • Able to sit between RevOps and engineering without needing a formal product spec for every build

Sector-deep expertise

We track which backgrounds, RevOps, data engineering, even growth hacking, actually transfer into this role.

Off-market access

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a GTM Engineer and a RevOps Specialist?
A RevOps Specialist typically works within existing tools and platforms. A GTM Engineer builds custom tooling and automation beyond what those platforms offer, often writing real code rather than just configuring workflows.
What background do strong GTM Engineer candidates come from?
Often a mix of data engineering, RevOps, or growth engineering, sometimes a technical founder or analyst who taught themselves to build GTM tooling out of necessity.
Is this the same as a Sales Engineer?
No, a Sales Engineer is a Pre-Sales role supporting live deals. A GTM Engineer works on internal systems and tooling for the revenue team itself, not customer-facing deal support.
What's the difference between the outbound-automation and internal-tooling versions of this role?
Some GTM Engineers focus mainly on outbound: data enrichment, list building and sequencing automation. Others focus on internal systems: integrating the CRM with other tools and building the internal apps a revenue team relies on. Many businesses need both, but the strongest candidates usually lean one way.
